Rebecca Gayheart

LAPD detectives have confirmed that the Eric Dane nude tape leaked early this week is under investigation as the video "contained images that could link celebrities engaging in illegal activity," according to a department statement.

In the Eric Dane tape, which also features his wife Rebecca Gayheart and former Miss Teen USA Kari Ann Peniche - the three appear rather intoxicated.

Eric Dane's lawyer wants to differentiate between a "sex tape" and a "nude tape." But whatever you want to call it, he's willing to sue you for exploiting it.

A video showing the Grey's Anatomy star, his wife Rebecca Gayheart and former Miss Teen USA Kari Ann Peniche nude and in compromising positions is ancient history, according to Marty Singer, an attorney for the married couple.

The Grey's Anatomy actor was recently dissed by Addison Sheperd and turned down as Seattle Grace Chief of Surgery - and now he has to deal with his semi-cute wife, Rebecca Gayheart, waving her boobs around for all celebrity gossip photographers to see.
